Besides these, the school also needs uniforms, desks, and other miscellaneous things that are still being prepared.

Once the notice was posted, many families brought their children to register. Most of these families were busy with farming and couldn't take care of their children, so sending them to school was a more convenient option.

The school tuition was paid every six months, one tael of silver each time, totaling two taels a year.

This tuition fee is much cheaper than schools in other places, but it is still not cheap for ordinary people.

However, most families in Tianxiang County made some money last year, so they could afford to pay one or two taels of silver.

When the families who came to register heard about the amount, they paid the tuition, food, and accommodation fees without saying a word.

The area in front of the county government office was bustling with activity.

Before the official start of the school year, Song Ning went to the school to take a look. Several teachers had already arrived and were familiarizing themselves with the environment.

Apart from Mr. Yu, the rest probably didn't expect the school environment to be this good.

The interior was nice and had everything they needed. What pleased them most was that, in addition to their living quarters, there was even a rest area after class, which also served as their office.

Students don't need to buy their own writing brushes, ink, paper, or inkstones; the school provides them all. Song Ning also said that students should ask for anything that is good for them, and the school will fulfill their needs.

As for the salaries of these people, teachers in the Jin Dynasty earned particularly well, and the salaries varied depending on rank and location.

A student who has passed the preliminary examination earns less each year, while a scholar who has passed the county-level examination earns twice as much. It is said that in some places, a scholar who has passed the preliminary examination can earn one hundred taels of silver a year, and those who have passed the county-level examination or higher earn even more.
